Can you spot the difference between the two hands? - Extra fingers are very common, typically they are removed when children are about one year old. - This particular case is what is called Wassel 5 type preaxial polydactyly. Dr. Amber Leis successfully reconstructed tendons and muscles when removing the extra finger to be sure that the finger left behind will be strong and stable. Great work by Dr. Leis! 👏👏 . . . . #polydactyly #babyhand #vacterl #preaxial #preaxialpolydactyly #thumbduplication #thumb #extrafinger #extrafingers #extrathumb #extrathumbs #pediatrichandsurgery #pediatricplasticsurgery #wassel #beforeandafter #plasticsurgerybeforeandafter https://www.instagram.com/p/BuKO0gXn6zw/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=11t3g1jlgoldv
